Beer Label Artwork ‘Copperhead Striker IPA’

Client – Copperhead Brewery Texas, USA

Brief – Illustrate beer label artwork for their new Copperhead Striker IPA, bottle and can versions. Full creative reign was given to me on this and as soon as I heard the name ‘Striker IPA’ I knew I wanted to illustrate a vicious looking snake striking straight at the audience and out of a barrel of ale. The black background is the give a dark feel to the artwork and also to give focus on the snake rather than having a busy background. The ‘Striker IPA’ typography is hand drawn and I liked to stay with the hops theme so wanted the type to look plant like.
